I have decided it would be too cruel to exclude men from the shoe-tastic ( yes I realized I've botched the English language bear with me.) fun, so I am on the prowl for men's 18th century, you can also post boots too! If we could keep this at two images per post that would be greatly appreciated.

These a pretty specimens I don't know why, but I like them and I WANT them.

Re: Mens 18th Century Shoes.

Tricorns were made into three corners because it was more fashionable for a gentleman to carry is hat in his arm, and easier to carry under the arm. Essentially it was the male version of a fan. However bi-corns I always have disliked for some peculiar reason.

Re: Mens 18th Century Shoes.

Thank you Hellou. I have always hated hats that kind because I have connected it to the revolution.
